Directions

Line 2 baking sheets with wax paper. Place a wire rack on each. Put brownies flat side up on racks.

Roll out gumdrops on a lightly sugared surface with a rolling pin until each is about 1⁄8 in. thick. Cut 12 into 1 1⁄2 x 1-in. rectangles. Using cookie cutter, cut out 12 circles from remaining gumdrops.

Microwave 1 bowl tinted frosting 5 seconds on high, then stir. Continue heating, 5 seconds at a time, stirring until the texture of slightly whipped cream. (Don't overheat.) Pour 1 to 2 Tbsp over each of 2 brownies to cover. Repeat with other tinted frostings.

Place rectangles and circles on coated brownies as shown. Cut a tiny tip off corner of ziptop bag and pipe details on gumdrops as shown. Let dry. Remove to a serving tray.
